So things have been pretty busy around here, we’ve had cheer competitions, football practices, soccer and I’m slowly pulling my hair out and sipping on extra coffee. I wanted to get on here and share some things we have been LOVING!!!!

Earlier in the month we took the kiddos to the extreme air park in Clarksville, TN. We love this place and really love the family deals they do on Monday evenings where a family can score jump time for a reasonable rate. If you click on the link above, it’ll send you to their page and you can search by zip code to find your local park. They have a ninja obstacle course, rock walls, ultimate dodgeball, and so many trampolines to keep the kids busy and burn off some energy!

This place is a 12 out of 10. This is my third time visiting and we ended up going on a beautiful warm sunny day which was a little off for March in Nashville. We chose to sit in the outdoor seating, where we were seated quickly and our drink orders taken immediately upon sitting down. I opted for the traditional cheeseburger with sweet potato fries.

You’ve got to try these fries- they are amazing!!! Head on over and enjoy a meal a made to order soda, or craft beer. P-H-E-N-O-M-E-N-A-L 💫

I took Andrew on a special Mommy & Son date to Miss Lucille’s. They had a special event for Dr. Seuss’s Birthday and we enjoyed it so much! We have gone to Miss Lucille’s before to shop in the antique and craft store. They have hundreds of booths that are rented out and vendors put all their goodies on display. It’s open Monday- Sunday. A quick drive even from Nashville and well worth the trip.

On this day, we met the Cat in the Hat, read Dr. Seuss books and made a Truffala tree craft. It was such a good afternoon, and a great way to start the weekend.

I picked up this cd on the day of release and haven’t stopped listening to it. It’s my go to when I’m on my way to work, or stuck in traffic on the way home. I love the song “Supplies”, and have really taken a liking to the song “The Hard Stuff”.

Brings me back to the good ol’ N’SYNC days, but much better. Follow JT on Instagram and it’ll be well worth it, he’s always running crazy contests for his fans. Even leaving signed copies of his album in Target for fans to pick up, using the code word “aardvark”. I mean what could be cooler than that?!

Obviously, we all know the Disney Motion Picture is out with an all-star cast, but I would highly suggest reading this easy read prior to viewing the movie. I enjoyed the book greatly, and our family hopes to see the movie within the next few weeks. I really don’t understand how I’ve made it into my 30’s without reading this previously, but it is definitely worth the read. I purchased my copy from Target at a good price as I prefer the actual book over the digital version.

I’ll be sending out a catch up post on all of our craziness here soon! Hope you enjoyed this post and it’s given you some awesome ideas of things to try. What are you loving this Thursday???

We’ve had a pretty busy week in our household, and of course right smack dab in the middle of the week was Valentine’s Day. The day of LOVE. We ended up spending an evening at home with the kids sharing heart shaped pizza and exchanging boxes of chocolate. So to round up this week, I wanted to share our favorite things, we will do this each Saturday. I’d love to hear some of the things you’re loving and trying out!

I discovered this little gem last spring while we were out on a day trip in Nashville. This mobile flower truck always has the best flowers and you pay by flower and can create your own bundle. You can follow Amelia’s on IG and they will let you know where they park their amazing VW for the day. We sometimes will ask them to create one for us, as they many times have more creative minds then we do.

These flowers have lasted me up to 4 weeks, depending on which type I choose. I typically will switch the water out of my mason jar vase every other day and clean it before placing the flowers back in.

They also have a monthly subscription and will deliver flowers to the Nashville area monthly. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!

I’ve had several doctor appointments this week and ended up wanting a sweet treat after one of them. I have appointments in the West End of town and had heard about this new dessert shop from a friend. If you love eating the cookie dough before you bake your own cookies at home, you will love this place. They recently opened their store in Nashville and will be expanding soon into Louisville, KY. You definitely want to check this out!!!

I picked up the brownie chocolate chip in a vanilla flavored waffle cone. I also picked up chocolate chip, and cookies and cream for the kiddos. They loved having the sweet treat to come home to. They even have a little peanut butter shot for the pup if you have them tag along, Bella enjoyed hers when we got home. I believe the Bo’s Dough was around $1.00-$1.50, so I didn’t mind snagging one for the pup! They have outdoor seating and it’s super quaint. Located right next to Centennial park where the Parthenon is located.

3&4. Let’s Combine this one

Guys!!! This chai is to die for, the coffee shop on my college campus back in New York carried this. You can make it in a frappe style, iced and my favorite hot using milk. If you are desperately limiting calories you can opt for water. But I make this as a sweet treat towards the end of my day, or pop it into my YETI mug for work.

This MUG though!! I’m falling in love with my Target runs even more! I love Grey’s Anatomy and the saying on this mug is something every Grey’s fan remembers. They have about 10-15 different stackable clay mugs and you can find them in the Homeware section. Go get you some!!!

Have a wonderful weekend! One of our kiddos was diagnosed with Strep yesterday so we will be having a comfy weekend indoors!
